Your hostess this week is me "Tamie". I am super excited to be bringing you our 99th challenge. What an exciting time it is for us Chicks as we approach our 100th challenge next week. Time has flown by but how we have enjoyed creating our challenges each week to share with each other and you.

What kind of challenge do I have for you this week?

CHALLENGE #99 - MAKE (Create) A BOX

You can make a box from scratch and decorate it.

or

Take a box that has already been made and decorate it.

It is one that I have never ever done by myself, only in my stamping group where Lori gave me instructions on how to make one. I figured it was time to step out of my comfort zone and try something new...LOL. Here is my take on a Mini Pizza Box:

Howdy Ho!! How are you all doing today? Can you believe that we are almost done the 3rd week of July. Oh my where is the time going? Our summer is flying by.

Thank you so much to everyone who has taken the time to play with us this summer. We had an amazing 73 entries for Melissa's Challenge. They were absolutely FABULOUS!! Every creation had rockin inspiration and made our job of picking our TOP 3 incredibly hard. Without further adieu here are our TOP 3 picks in no particular order:

What an amazing bold and striking masculine card. The way you used the stripes, along with the ruler paper is sweet and adds to the pop of your card. Your coloring of the image is awesome and it represents Dads and their tool belts to a tee. Marvelous inspiration.

Today, is a blustery day outside and well it kind of reminds me of the Winnie the Pooh story, where Pooh bear says it sure is blustery out here or something like that...LOL.
